I’m leaving today. I wanna wake up in the city that never sleeps!! I’m flying to the Big Apple to meet up with Jeanofalltrades! We’re gonna be a part of the action; exciting days and magical nights!! Jean has made plans for us to go to some great vegan restaurants, a jazz evening at a night club and several interesting things to see and do. We’ll decide on a play, too.
I’ve only been to New York City once in 2005 and it was fantastic! I thought that would be my once-in-a-lifetime, but I have another opportunity to go. I’ve been saving my money for shopping! It’s not a place I want to live, but it sure is fun to visit.
Here’s my traveling outfit. I love peplum tops. I still remember my mom’s gorgeous, red peplum dress with black roses from the 60s and she had several peplum suit jackets with matching pencil skirts (wish I had them in my wardrobe).
This style is feminine, great for all body types from slim to fuller figures, it shapes us like an hourglass. I think it’s flattering for all women, and creates a shapely illusion for less-than-perfect figures (which most of us have!). Do you like peplum style tops and dresses?
Have you been to NYC?
Looking pretty and I was in NY in 1987… have a nice time, dear…
liebe Grüße und eine gute Reise

You, My Friend, look so lovely, I can not believe my eyes. I would love to be a part of this wonderful group, just don’t have enough guts and very low self-esteem.
Love your pictures,
